1966 Map of Deer Creek

About this map

Pleasant Valley and the course of the Fisher River dominate this mid-1960s survey within the Kootenai National Forest. The landscape is defined by its drainage network, where the Pleasant Valley Fisher River meets numerous mountain tributaries including Calx Creek, Tamarack Creek, and Tensaw Creek. This area, straddling the border between Lincoln and Flathead counties, reflects a timber and resource-based economy where early infrastructure is limited to a handful of unpaved routes and a Gravel Pit near the river bend.
